BIG BROTHER 6 LIVE FEED SPOILERS.





The funniest thing is that those people think they are liked. Yet i don't actually know (or have i read) anybody who can remotely stand them.

MORE SPOILERS





Last night was insane!!!! Janelle is acting totally out of control to try to get herself evicted rather than Kaysar. Howie is joining in. He has targeted April and Janelle seems to have targeted both Beau and April it's working on them right now.  Ivette is the only one who really seems to see through it,a nd she just keeps saying "let's talk about it tomorrow".

Apparently BB had a pizza party and supplied everyone with alcohol to try to calm things down. That's what was going on during the fish tanks, but it certainly didn't work.  

Beau and Janelle apparently pushed each other, but I doubt it will be enough violence to get either of them kicked off.

Finally BB just made them all go to bed with a lights out.

I love swing music!  I always had this strange affinity for the big band sound.  It's just sounds so rich and dense--oh, those saxes!  It sends me, daddy, it sends me!

Favorite artists are:
Glenn Miller
Jimmy Dorsey
Benny Goodman
Duke Ellington
The Andrews Sisters
Frank Sinatra
Helen O'Connell

Too many to remember or list--I pretty much love it all.  

You vex me, daddy, you vex me!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR VIXMOM!!!

I went to bed wearing my CPAP mask. I woke up at about 5:30 this morning and it was on my nightstand, neatly put away, but the machine and humidfier were both still running. I do NOT remember taking that mask off. The velcro was undone and everything!

I put it back on and went back to sleep and had quite possibly one of the most enjoyable dreams I've had since I was 14. Yes, it was one of "those" dreams. Well, not one of THOSE dreams - I think I'm too old for that - but a dream for a more mature audience. I know it's unseemly to discuss that in mixed company, but I haven't had one of those dreams in so long, I just had to share. Perhaps it was all the talk about the Greek...

I really don't know from swing/big band music. I know I should, but we never got that far in Music History. I love the Andrews Sisters' sound, but I can only name a couple of their tunes. "Sing, Sing, Sing" and "In the Mood" make me very happy, but that's about the extent of my Big Band knowledge. If anyone would like to send me a CD with a brief history of Big Band/Swing music, I'd be happy to give it a listen. I love that period - I'm just not well-versed in that genre.

DR Hisaka - I'm so happy to hear that you're well and that there is minimal damage in your area. I just checked with my friend in the office whose entire family lives in Tokyo - he said he was on the phone with his mom when it happened! Everyone is fine, so that's good...

DR Ben: Glad to hear your -oscopy went well. My mom gets them every year (my grandfather had [and beat!] colon cancer back in the 80's, so we're all at risk), and she despises every minute leading up to it. She starts getting really irritable about a week before and is a totally different person after it's done. Glad it wasn't such a bad experience for you!

DR Jose: Glad rehearsal went well and that you get to sleep in today!

Oh i cannot wait to see what they show on tv from this howie/janelle/april/beau fiasco.

I think most everyone hates April/Jen/Maggie/Ivette.  And most people seem to really like janelle/kaysar.  But I am curious how most people view howie and janelle's antics.  I didn't see them, but i think it sounds hilarious. And i think april got what she deserved.  But i've noticed a few at canoe seem to think howie was acting immature and that this is just a game (and he was making it personal).

To me, the Friendship went overboard (with their lies and proclamations that they are good and honest), and i wanted to see someone give it to them good.

It seems maggie is acting the most sane of their group (with ivette and james).

I wonder if janelle will be voted out. I hope not. I REALLY like her.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR vimom!!!

Damn that Jose! I'll bet he took the "X" out of Xmas and was responsible for shortened seX objects. Instead of stripping poor ViXmom of one third of her consonantal identity he could have cut our taXes.

A happy X-rated Birthday to Vixmom

Funny you should mention that. I get the full results next week but when I left the nurse gave me a quick overview along with two small pictures. Apparently there were two benign polyps which were removed during the -oscopy process and they printed out the pictures! Like I want them??? Oh, well. Those pictures won't be part of the picture resume if I ever get back into the business  ;)

Glenn Miller ranks at the very tip top of my swing/big band favorites. One of the first CDs I bought when I got my first CD player was a Best of Glenn Miller CD with 70 minutes of his greatest hits in their original recordings.

My favorite was and is "Chattanooga Choo-Choo." And I love the Dorothy Dandridge section that sometimes gets lopped off of other recordings.

When I was in the high school band, one of the things I always looked forward to was playing show music at the spring concert. The director would pick one or two Broadway musicals and we'd play selections from the shows. During my years we did BELLS ARE RINGING, GOLDEN BOY, THE MUSIC MAN, THE UNSINKABLE MOLLY BROWN, WEST SIDE STORY (always my favorite), CAMELOT.

Anyway, for my senior year, I couldn't wait to see which shows he'd pick. To my utter devastation, he decided against show music that year and went with big band music instead. Even though my parents were both huge fans of big bands (it was their era after all), I knew from nothing about swing music. They didn't play many records by that time, and the ones they had were 78s which didn't sound too great on the stereo console we played our music on.

Anyway, despite my disappointment, we jumped into about 10 famous big band selections by Glenn Miller, the Dorseys, etc. and I loved every single one of them. My favorite of the ones we played was "Moonlight Serenade."

And I'm on board with the Andrews Sisters, too. Loved all of their recordings, and I was lucky enough to see Patty and Maxene in OVER HERE! in the 1970s. I really loved that show.

Good Morning!

I'm up!  I'm up!  -Just barely... But I'm up.

OH!  And it's a beautiful day up here it appears. Actually, yesterday was too, but I was in rehearsal all day, so...  Maybe I'll go for another hike later.  We'll see.

In any case...

Happy Birthday, Vixmom.

Hello, Larry was indeed a short-lived show, set in the mythical village of Portland, Oregon.   ;D

Favorite swing:  "And the Angels Sing," with that cooler than cool trumpet solo (by Ziggy Elman, IIRC).

Boy, I just read in VARIETY that John Lithgow was on vacation from DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS the entire week after I was in NYC. We lucked out with that one just like our luck was bad with SPAMALOT (as far as seeing stars, that is; thoroughly enjoyed the show even without Tim Curry).
